In last week's episodes April confronted two of her school's more prolific bullies as she thought it was Caela (Ruby Thompson) and Annabel (Iyla McCaig), her accomplice, but viewers all saw Cathy Hope (Gabrielle Dowling) coax April into meeting Caela & Annabel.
In tonight's trip to the Yorkshire Dales, April tried to celebrate her 12th Birthday but with the ordeal firmly on her mind, it wasn't a Happy Birthday.
When April left, the camera panned to Cathy who was seen to respond to April's comment thus revealing it was Cathy all along.
Viewers took to real-life Social Media and expressed their contempt.
I hope that Nasty Cathy gets dealt with in a nasty way. To do that to your own niece and mock your own dead sister. #emmerdale
